What To Expect
Prepare to experience a relaxing paddle adventure in a cedar strip canoe. Guided by a certified knowledgeable local guide you will be plying the waters of Pyramid Lake at the base of Pyramid Mountain, experiencing the laid-back mode of transportation used in Canada for generations.
After a quick on-shore learn to paddle session and being suited up with a PFD we are ready to go. Departing from the sandy beach at Pyramid Lake Resort you can experience a 2.5 to 3 hour trip on a 25 foot long locally sourced handcrafted cedar strip canoe. Built for maximum stability and stocked with an ample supply of blankets and outerwear for those cool mornings this canoe is a comfortable craft for groups of up to 6 people.
The tour circumnavigates a clear mountain lake taking in classic Rocky Mountain vistas, wildlife viewing opportunities, and a shore-side stop halfway through the tour for a chance to stretch our legs and have shore side snacks including fruit, baked goods, and a coffee and tea service. After the break which perchance may have included a swim on a sandy beach, we continue on the last leg of the tour finishing back at our point of departure.

Nov 2021No experience is necessary! Beginners are welcome on all of our kayak tours. Most of our guests have never been in a sea kayak before. Anyone in average physical condition may join a kayak tour. If you can hike or bike, you can paddle our sea kayaks. You do not need any swimming skills either.
The only prerequisite is a healthy spirit of curiosity and adventure.
Regardless of age or skill level you will find that our expeditions offer enough flexibility to make your experience with us safe and rewarding. We will show you proper sea kayaking technique and water safety before leaving the beach. And your expert guides will be with you throughout the adventure to give you pointers and improve your skills.
